Mid Week Ramble: Chadkirk
Overview
A walk of great variety in and around the Chadkirk Country Estate. Woodlands, country estates, 14th century chapels, dramatic aquaducts and viaducts, canals and quiet valleys all feature on this stroll, which feels surprisingly rural in view of its proximity to an urban area. Please bring your walking boots and a packed lunch as usual.
Facilities: During Covid-19 it is not known whether the toilets at the Etherow Visitor Centre Car Park will be open.
